Musical theatre writers are being invited to sign up to this year’s Musical Theatre Writing Challenge – #ComeWhatMay.
Created in 2021 during the pandemic by award-winning composer, lyricist and playwright Gus Gowland (Mayflies, Pieces of String), the online writers’ room will open for the fifth time from 1 May.
Launching this year’s event, Gowland said: “We ’re thrilled to be teaming up with the National Theatre of Scotland for this year’s challenge. As Cameron Mackintosh Resident Composer at NTS, I have been so excited by the focus and support of new musical theatre writing they are providing. The challenge is designed for everyone, so whether you’re a seasoned pro, or just giving it a go, Come What May is for you.”
Every day throughout May, participants in the Musical Theatre Writing Challenge will receive prompts focused on generating new work and keeping creative juices flowing. Participants can be at any stage of their writing journey, and it’s completely free to take part.
